You need only money. 250 rubles, 350 rubles.

250 rubles.

Fell at home. 250 rubles.

Where could you get 250 rubles?

Decided to visit the apartments for 250 rubles.

The idea of paying you off in rubles was pretty hard to resist.

Mademoiselle, I wonder if I might offer you a million rubles... to paint my portrait.

Right now, Comrade Otto Ludwig Piffl... is tooling along on his motorcycle... toward East Berlin, gay, chipper... feeling like a million rubles.

He did not enter this property in his organization's accounts and, using his official powers, intentionally appropriated the property, worth a total of 21,440,944 Belarusian rubles, without payment.

The Department for the Investigation of Especially Important Cases in the Office of the Procurator General of the Russian Federation is handling criminal proceedings against Svetlana Bakhmina, one of the heads of the legal department of the Yukos oil company, in connection with the theft of property worth over 9 billion rubles from the Tomskneft company, and also failure to pay taxes in the amount of 604,040 rubles.

He was reportedly punished to limitation of service to one year, withholding 10 per cent of his remuneration and payment of 2 million rubles apos compensation to Sergey Bannikov for moral damage .

Gross public and private external debt is below 40 of GDP, and much of it is denominated in rubles. The sharp fall in export income is rapidly changing the situation, but Russia is starting from a comfortable position.

Ms. Bakhmina was charged, under section 3, article 160, of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation entitled Appropriation or waste , with the theft of property worth approximately 18 billion rubles (about US 650 million) from a Yukos subsidiary in 1998.

It is true that income from oil and gas, which represents the bulk of government revenues, has been halved when measured in dollars. But the Russian currency has fallen by about the same percentage, meaning that the government s income in rubles remains approximately unchanged.

This year, the Russian government will provide the Ministry of Defense almost 5 trillion rubles ( 189 billion) under the 2007 2015 State Armaments Program. The percentage of the defense budget allocated to purchasing military equipment will rise from 44 in 2006 to 50 by 2011.

Don t worry, Russia s oligarchs are not starving, but the fortunes of many of them have collapsed. In another joke making the rounds in Moscow, a billionaire borrows 300 rubles (just over 10) from another to buy Forbes to check his place in the latest rankings of Russia s richest people.

Second, because Rosneft must repay its external debt, it is likely to use its bailout cash to buy dollars, which can only result in further downward pressure on the ruble. Rosneft has denied this publicly, but the markets nonetheless seem to expect that the newly printed rubles will flood the currency markets.

When the exchange rate plummeted again, the Kremlin urged the five largest state owned exporting companies to exchange a portion of their assets into rubles, leading to another overshoot, followed by yet another sharp decline. Clearly, such uncoordinated interventions are exacerbating currency market turmoil, with the ruble s value fluctuating by 5 and as much as 10 in a single day.

Russia's decision to spend an extra 157 billion rubles (over 5 billion) to fight terrorism is a more impressive response than all the Kremlin's recent tough talk, including President Vladimir Putin's demand that more power be centralized in his hands. Indeed, after the hostage crisis in the Dubrovka Theater in Moscow in 2002, the same sort of harsh words flowed, but no extra money was spent.
